[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 7367430, member: 549629"] You are clouding the discussion with your "75%" theory. As you turn the stereo higher, yes obviously distortion increases. That's not the point here. The point here is, is it caused by the cone deforming. No, it is not (or, very very little of it is). Round coned speakers are inherently centered. The force is exerted evenly from the vc former, to the cone, and up through the cone to the surround. The suspension also helps prevent rocking. So if [I]your[/I] subs experience a rocking issue like you think that video suggests, you have bigger problems than what your cones are made of. I will say once more, the cone was not warping in that video. A cone that warped like that on every cycle, would fail very very fast due to material fatigue. That is NOT normal speaker operations, and you assuming it is has only lead you to false conclusions. No offense to you, but it has. If you want to believe metal cones are inherently lighter than paper, nothing I say will change your mind.
